Building a Better Future - Promoting High Quality Development of International Mining Cooperation among SCO Countries

Abstract

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is a permanent intergovernmental international organization established in Shanghai, China in 2001 by the People's Republic of China, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, the Russian Federation, the Republic of Tajikistan, and the Republic of Uzbekistan. As of now, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization has 10 member states, 2 observer states, and 14 dialogue partners. The total area of member countries exceeds 37 million square kilometers, accounting for approximately 25% of the global land area; The total population in the region is nearly 3.6 billion, accounting for half of the world's population, and the total gross domestic product of the countries within the organization exceeds 23 trillion US dollars.

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization has always maintained strong vitality and cooperation momentum, fundamentally because it creatively proposed and consistently practiced the "Shanghai Spirit", advocating mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality, consultation, respect for diverse civilizations, and seeking common development. This goes beyond outdated concepts such as clash of civilizations, Cold War mentality, and zero sum games, opening a new page in the history of international relations and gaining increasingly widespread recognition from the international community.

In the economic cooperation and exchanges among the member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, international mining operation cooperation is an important field. With the abundant mineral resources and deepening cooperation of the SCO countries, it has demonstrated enormous development potential. Under the cooperation framework of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, international mining operation cooperation is not only of great significance to the economic development of various countries, but also occupies an increasingly important position in the global mining landscape.
